Bradley D. Sharp, the Court-appointed permanent receiver (the “Receiver”)
for the estate of Direct Lending Investments, LLC (“DLI”), Direct Lending Income
Fund, L.P., Direct Lending Income Feeder Fund, Ltd., DLI Capital, Inc., DLI
Lending Agent, LLC, DLI Assets Bravo LLC, and their successors, subsidiaries and
affiliated entities (collectively, the “Receivership Entities”) pursuant to the
Preliminary Injunction Order and Order Appointing Permanent Receiver issued April
1, 2019 (“Receiver Order”) (Doc. No. 10), hereby submits his Fifth Status Report
covering the period from January 24, 2020 through April 24, 2020.
I. Summary Overview
In his last report filed on January 30, 2020, the Receiver noted that he was in a
better position to assess (1) the returns likely to be generated from liquidating or
administering the DLI portfolio assets and (2) the circumstances that led the SEC to
seek the appointment of a Receiver. He reported his preliminary findings and
described how he expected the substantial majority of the work on the liquidation of
the remaining portfolio positions would be completed in short order. To that end,
since the last report was filed, the Receiver moved for Court approval of three
settlements and restructuring agreements hoping to resolve two of the outstanding
major portfolio positions and to commence the liquidation of a third significant
portfolio position.
First, the Receiver recovered more than $36 million as a result of a two-step
process where the DLI Receivership Entities were granted approval to enter into a
consent and loan release agreement with the LendingUSA, LLC and LUSA, LLC
counter-parties as part of a transaction in which it was anticipated that the
receivership estate would complete a settlement and subsequently acquire a 49
percent (49%) interest in Lending USA (subject to limited dilution in specific
circumstances). Second, the Receiver also secured Court approval to enter into a
partial settlement agreement and term sheet for a forbearance agreement with
Kountable Borrower, LLC and Kountable, Inc. Unfortunately, the completion of the

agreements with both of these counter-parties was impacted by the COVID-19
developments, and both have been delayed. The Receiver still hopes to complete the
Lending USA transactions and will be moving for Court approval of a modified
forbearance agreement with the Kountable parties.
Third, the Receiver also was able to obtain initial Court approval to enter into
a settlement and final forbearance agreement based on term sheets reached with DLI
Properties, LLC, Liberty Fund, LLC, DLI Global, Ltd., and Quanta Finance, LLC.
Upon finalizing the agreements, it is anticipated that the Receiver would take a
number of steps to implement the settlement and forbearance agreement, including a
possible additional revolving loan in the amount of approximately $5 million.
Reaching agreement on the final terms of the settlement and forbearance agreement
has been difficult, but the parties are now expecting to finalize the agreements in the
near future.
Although the Receiver continues to make every attempt to maximize the
recovery with respect to the three investments described above, and on the remaining
assets that are still being actively managed, the anticipated and actual collections on
the active portfolio positions have not improved the Receiver’s overall outlook for
recovery.
The Receiver and his professionals believe they can estimate an overall return
on the portfolio investments valued at par (i.e., face value amount outstanding) by
DLI at $789.6 million dollars as of March 31, 2019. After considering amounts
collected to date (since appointment) by the Receiver and the likely range of future
collections, the Receiver and his team estimate a low range of return on the
liquidation of the investments of $215 million (or about 27% of the March 31, 2019
par value) and a high range of $265 million (or about 34%), both before expenses.
Of course, these are only the best estimates available and are not certain. The
ultimate return to investors will be increased by the $31.7 million in cash on hand at
the time of the appointment of the Receiver and any proceeds of litigation to be filed

by the Receiver, reduced by operating costs, administrative fees and expenses, and
impacted by allowed non-investor claims.
The Receiver continues to investigate the underlying reasons for the
magnitude of the loss in the value of the investments and to explore the possibilities
to recover for some of the losses through litigation. The Receiver has secured pre-
litigation tolling agreements with a number of parties to preserve potential claims
where the Receiver’s counsel identified possible statute of limitations issues arising
prior to April 30, 2020. Counsel for the Receiver will continue to approach potential
defendants where appropriate seeking tolling agreements protecting claims, as the
Receiver further evaluates litigation options and undertakes to develop the best
overall understanding of the causes for the losses of the DLI Receivership Entities
and investors as a foundation for any affirmative litigation. The outcome of any such
litigation is unpredictable and any recoveries cannot be estimated at this stage.
The Receiver is directing the preparation of a more comprehensive forensic
analysis and accounting for the sources and uses of funds by the DLI Receivership
Entities, with a detailed analysis of the funding of specific investments and the actual
returns to the DLI Receivership Entities. Presenting a complete financial picture will
offer another important basis for further understanding the facts and circumstances
that led to the appointment of a receiver, for the Receiver to consider when
evaluating options for various claim determination methodologies, and to
recommend the approach that the Receiver determines is the most appropriate to use
in this case.
This work follows the motion by the Receiver requesting the Court to set a bar
date for the filings of claims by creditors and investors, and to approve a claims
administration process. The Receiver’s motion was granted on April 9, 2020 and the
Court set a bar date for the filing of claims, requiring claims to be filed no later than
July 7, 2020, as outlined in greater detail below. The setting of the claims bar date
and the approval of the claims administration process permits the Receiver to shift

into the next stages necessary to wind down the DLI Receivership Entities.
II. Update on Operational Issues
A. Sublease of DLI Premises and Sale of Property: As noted in the prior
report, the Receiver entered into a sublease of the DLI premises in Glendale,
California. The Receiver can now report that DLI’s lease and sublease have been
terminated.
B. Employees: With the authority granted to the Receiver in the
Additional Receiver Authority Order, since June 24, 2019 the Receiver has reduced
the number of staff of DLI to five employees, and entered into separation
agreements with certain of the departing staff members. Further departures are
anticipated as the operations continue to wind down. The remaining employees of
DLI have continued to work remotely.
C. Opus Fund Services (Bermuda) Ltd. (“Opus”)/Bankruptcy Management
Solutions dba Stretto: The Receiver terminated the services of Opus effective
September 26, 2019, and the Receiver’s Court-approved claims agent Bankruptcy
Management Solutions dba Stretto (“Stretto”) has taken primary responsibility for
communications with investors. (www.stretto.com.) Opus continues to maintain
records and provide the Receiver access to its portal.
D. Extension of Ordinary Course Authority: On December 13, 2019, the
Receiver filed a motion seeking multiple items of relief, including an order
extending the Receiver’s authority to employ vendors and professionals in the
ordinary course of the receivership, subject to the less than $10,000 per month limit
on payment of professionals for the period of October 1, 2019 through the week
ending April 24, 2020, as well as an order authorizing the Receiver to employ and
pay ordinary course professionals, including accountants and attorneys previously
employed in the ordinary course of the Receivership Entity’s business. (Doc. No.
194.) The motion also sought authority for the Receiver to operate the receivership
estate and pay receivership expenses in accordance with two 13-week budgets

covering receivership expenses through the week ending April 24, 2020 (the
“November 2019-April 2020 Budgets”), and sought approval of a
vendor/professional contract with Elite Discovery, Inc., a data management and e-
discovery platform vendor. (Id.) The motion granting the relief sought was
approved by the Court’s order issued January 8, 2020 (“Ordinary Course Extension
Order”.) (Doc. No. 208.)
Attached hereto as Exhibit “1” is a copy of an Actual v. Budget Summary
comparing the January 31, 2020 – April 24, 2020 Budget to the tentative actual
result. Attached hereto as Exhibit “2” is the Receiver’s Standardized Fund
Accounting Report for the Reporting Period January 1, 2020 through March 31,
2020.
E. Ordinary Course Settlement Update: With the authority and powers of
the Receiver set forth in the Court’s order granting the Receiver’s Motion for
Instructions re Scope of Receivership (Doc. No. 57), the Receiver is authorized to
make compromises of claims and accept discounts of $100,000 or less. Based on
that order, as well as the Ordinary Course Extension Orders of October 2, 2019, and
January 8, 2020, the Receiver has obtained settlements of approximately 20 claims
related to certain of the loan portfolios. The settlements include discounted payoffs
and negotiated structured repayment agreements as the Receiver endeavors to
maximize recoveries on loans in default. The settlements typically involve ongoing
monthly payments on the loans potentially with reduced or waiver of interest.
III. Assets: The Loans and Other Assets
A. Loan Portfolios: The primary assets of the estate consist of the various
investment instruments, loans, and loan portfolios into which funds generated from
investors through the feeder funds were invested. The Receiver’s initial review of
the books and records of the estate indicated that there were 26 outstanding
investments comprising the primary estate assets. The number of outstanding
investment/loan portfolios is now 14, based on: (1) the Receiver’s review and

analysis of the loan records which indicated certain investments were no longer
outstanding and had been paid off shortly before the commencement of the
receivership; (2) post-receivership loan payoffs; (3) three whole loan portfolio sales;
and (4) the Court’s approval of a restructuring transaction/settlement for six
additional investments.
It should be noted, however, that there are now only about seven (7) active
material relationships with investment parties which the Receiver and his team are
managing. In addition, as noted above, the Receiver is hoping to complete complex
settlement and restructuring transactions where the Court approved the Receiver
entering into final agreements based on term sheets submitted with the motions, but
which are not yet finalized due to recent developments. Special creditors’ rights
counsel, Goldberg Kohn, has had primary responsibility for representing the
Receiver in the negotiation of those possible transactions. The Receiver had been
working with two other counter-parties attempting to refinance the DLI loans prior to
the widespread disruption caused by COVID-19. While those refinancing
transactions have not been completed, the Receiver and his professionals have been
working closely with the counter-parties to protect the interests of the DLI
Receivership Entities and explore the best available alternatives to recover on those
investments. The Receiver continues to move towards the liquidation of the
investment portfolio positions and reducing the amount of management required.
(1) Current Schedule of Loans/Investments
As in the prior report, the Receiver is maintaining confidential the identity of
the specific borrowers on the list of loan/investment portfolios. Attached to this Fifth
Status Report as Exhibit “3” is an updated list identifying the status of each of the
investments, including those that have been paid off after the receivership, and the
remaining unsatisfied loans/investments (the “Loan/Investment Schedule”). The
Loan/Investment Schedule includes the par dollar amount of the estate’s interest in
those portfolios as reflected on the books and records of the Receivership Entities,

collections on those portfolios obtained since the commencement of the receivership,
and a general summary of the loan/investment portfolio. The Loan/Investment
Schedule includes a column for “other adjustments,” which for investments
numbered 1, 2, 3, and 5 related to a write-down of amounts owed. The positive
adjustment related to Investment J is an increase in the investment balance based on
amounts added for interest paid in kind. The adjustment related to Investment R
reflects a restructuring/settlement with respect to this investment. As indicated in the
prior report, two of the investments in particular are of uncertain value: the
QuarterSpot investment (investment 2) which as described in the SEC’s complaint
initiating this action involved the inaccurate reporting of payments affecting the
value and likely collection of those underlying loans; and b) VoIP Guardian Partners
loan (investment 22), based on that company’s filing of a Chapter 7 liquidation and
other factors. In the interests of confidentiality, only the loans/investments that have
been paid off or sold, and the QuarterSpot and VoIP loans, which have been the
subject of public filings, are identified by name.
Of the 14 remaining outstanding loan and investment portfolios, most are in
some form of financial distress or subject to disputes that may affect the timing and
extent of recoveries on those portfolios.
(2) Status of Loan/Investment Portfolio
Since the last report, the Receiver, his portfolio team, his investment bankers
with Raymond James & Associates (“RJA”), and his counsel, including creditors’
rights specialists at Goldberg Kohn, have continued to analyze the outstanding
loan/investment portfolios to prepare strategies to monetize the portfolios and
maximize value for the estate.
When the Receiver was initially appointed on April 1, 2019, the estate had
cash on hand of $31.7 million. Since the Receiver’s appointment through April 24,
2020, the Receiver has recovered an additional $168.1 million in portfolio collections
(excluding fund collected on behalf of and either reserved for or remitted to third

parties).
The remaining loan/investment portfolios that have not been paid off or sold
had a par value on the Receivership Entities books of $576.6 million as of March 31,
2020. However, as noted in the prior report, each of the remaining loan/investment
portfolios have a number of issues that make recovery of all or a large portion of the
outstanding balances challenging.
For example, although the par value of the VoIP loan on the Receivership
Entities’ books as of March 31, 2020 is approximately $202.6 million, the Receiver
is not expecting a recovery of nearly the amount of the outstanding balance as there
are substantial questions and concerns regarding collection of the underlying foreign
telecommunications accounts receivable. VoIP is in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which
fact alone reflects the challenges in collection. In addition, approximately $22
million from VoIP receivables continues to be held in the Netherlands, as the funds
were seized and are subject to a criminal investigation of Rodney Omanoff and
others for money laundering and other criminal claims. Other portfolios are
structured with limited guarantees by the principals, and in other portfolios, the value
of the underlying collateral is highly uncertain or speculative at this point.
Without providing individualized loan/portfolio assessments, it remains the
Receiver’s general assessment, as informed by his professional advisors, that
recoveries on the remaining loan/investment portfolios are likely to be far less than
the $789.6 million stated on the receivership books and records as of March 31,
2019. The Receiver and his professional advisors now estimate that the total
recoveries to date (since appointment) and future recoveries on the loan/investment
portfolio in place as of March 31, 2019, will range between a low of $215 million
and a high of $265 million. This represents a reduction from the estimated low of
$235 million and high of $315 million described in the last report. The Receiver
notes that the estimated recoveries are subject to many different variables and factors
in addition to considerations relating to the quality of the collateral and

loans/investments, including concerns about the coronavirus pandemic which
manifested during this quarter, inevitable economic recession, the impact of the trade
dispute with China, and fluctuations in the real estate market, among many other
potential issues.
During this period, the Receiver has worked on tax issues related to the
preparation of returns for the 2019 tax returns. The Receiver plans to file extensions
for the 2019 K-1s and will provide the 2019 Schedule K-1s to all investors by
September 15, 2020.
B. Tangible Personal Property: As noted in the prior report, the Receiver
inventoried the artwork and other assets which remain in subtenant’s possession or in
storage. The Receiver filed a motion for Court approval to liquidate the artwork and
to approve proposed sale procedures, as the liquidation would be outside the ordinary
course of business.
C. Litigation Claims: As stated in the prior report, the other potential
assets of the estate are prospective litigation claims. The full extent of these claims
is the subject of investigation, and the potential value of these claims to the estate has
not yet been fully quantified.
The investigation of potential litigation has continued since the Receiver’s
Fourth Report. The Receiver and his counsel have made substantial efforts to
continue to evaluate the merits and potential recovery from bringing litigation claims
on behalf of the estate, although the precise value remains uncertain at this time.
These claims include potential fraudulent transfer claims, potential claims against
professionals, and potential claims against certain officers and directors of the
Receivership Entities, including claims that may be covered by the D&O Insurance
Policy.
The Receiver and counsel have identified possible litigation targets, outlined
possible legal and other theories of recovery, and entered into confidential tolling
agreements with a number of potential defendants. In the course of the investigative

process, they have now issued almost sixty (60) subpoenas to third parties for the
production of records -- including subpoenas to legal, accounting, valuation
professionals, and financial institutions. Counsel have continued to review the
databases of DLI documents, and the documents and records produced to date.
Serving these subpoenas, and voluntary productions by other entities, have resulted
in the production of in excess of 750,000 pages of documents to date. The Receiver
continues to receive further productions from third parties, and the review process of
these voluminous productions is ongoing.
As of this date, the Receiver’s counsel has participated in extensive meetings
and undertaken witness interviews with fourteen (14) persons employed by or
affiliated with DLI. Many discussions have taken place on multiple days. Counsel
has issued deposition subpoenas to a number of other former DLI officers, and it is
anticipated that those depositions, or agreed upon interviews, will take place during
the second quarter of 2020. In addition, counsel has spoken to many investors and
discussed the circumstances related to how these investors decided to invest with
DLI and what representations were made to them.
The Receiver and counsel are continuing to pursue actively these factual
investigations, which will likely include additional interviews of witnesses and
analysis of additional documents and records that are produced by third parties in
response to the subpoenas issued. Further investigation of the facts and
circumstances may produce information relevant to the basis to assert claims or may
provide evidence of defenses to the claims precluding or limiting their assertion.
As outlined in the last report, the Receiver and his professionals continue to
advance their comprehensive analysis of the factual and legal foundation for
potential claims, and legal issues germane to the evaluation of such claims and
defenses, including statute of limitations issues, potential application of the discovery
rule, and choice of law considerations. This work product and the active work,
which is ongoing, will provide the basis for recommendations concerning whether or

not to initiate litigation against potential defendants to pursue recoveries for the
benefit of the receivership estate, investors, and creditors. The Receiver has now
entered into confidential tolling agreements with a number of key parties where
counsel identified a possible statute of limitations period that may have expired
before April 30, 2020. These tolling agreements will allow the Receiver and his
counsel to further investigate and analyze potential claims, while continuing the
investigation effort and undertaking the forensic accounting analysis described
above.
The Receiver anticipates discussing with the Diamond McCarthy firm the
potential to pursue specific litigation claims on behalf of the DLI Receivership
Entities on a contingency fee basis, or possibly modified contingency fee
engagements, to maximize the value of possible litigation claims to the receivership
estate, while minimizing the risk of out-of-pocket legal expenses that would arise
from pursuing affirmative litigation on an hourly basis. Any such fee arrangement
would be subject to court approval.
In addition, during this period, the Receiver has responded to requests for
information from governmental entities and has actively coordinated with DLI
insurers related to these and other insurance issues.
IV. Court Filings January 2020 Through April 2020
A. Motions Related to Loan/Investment Portfolios
During this period, the Receiver filed three motions related to recoveries and
monetization of the loan/investment portfolios, as well as related pleadings.
The Receiver moved for approval of a settlement and restructuring support
agreement with respect to obligations owed by LendingUSA, LLC, LCUSA, LLC
and other related entities, to receivership entities DLI Assets Bravo LLC and DLI
Lending Agent, LLC. (Doc. No. 222.) As part of a two-step process, an order was
entered on February 3, 2020, allowing DLI to enter into a consent and loan release
agreement with LUSA, in which DLI consented to a sale by LUSA of substantially

all of its loan portfolios to fund a cash payment to DLI and provide operating
expenses to LUSA. (Doc. No. 220.) That sale closed on February 5, 2020, and
resulted in the collection of over $36 million in repayments to DLI. The second step
of the process will generally result in the receivership estate acquiring a 49% interest
(subject to dilution) in Lending USA. The motion was granted by an order entered
on March 9, 2020. (Doc. No. 232.) However, recent developments, as described
above, have delayed the parties from completing the final restructuring agreements to
finalize the transaction. The Receiver is hopeful that he will be able to finalize these
agreements and pursue the opportunity to obtain the equity interest in Lending USA
and work with the LUSA parties to try and build the business.
The Receiver also filed a motion for approval of a settlement and forbearance
term sheets with DLI Properties, LLC, Liberty Fund, LLC, DLI Global, Ltd., and
Quanta Finance, LLC. (Doc. No. 226.) The Court entered an order on March 26,
2020 granting the motion, authorizing the Receiver to enter into the final forbearance
agreement and take additional actions necessary to implement the settlement,
including making additional revolving loans in an additional amount of
approximately $5 million with Strategic Acquisitions, Inc., through Liberty Fund,
LLC and DLI Properties, LLC. (Doc. No. 245.) The parties are now working to
finalize the remaining documentation required to close these transactions.
On March 6, 2020, the Receiver moved for an order approving a partial
settlement and term sheet for a forbearance agreement with Kountable Borrower,
LLC and Kountable, Inc. (Doc. No. 229.) On April 3, 2020, the Court entered an
order approving the settlement terms, and authorizing the Receiver to enter into a
forbearance agreement. (Doc. No. 247.) Although the current coronavirus situation
has created uncertainty regarding the collection efforts underlying the transaction, the
Receiver remains hopeful that the estate will recover $4.5 million or more out of the
$10.6 million of the position’s pre-receivership par value for the Kountable loans.

B. Motions Concerning Administration of the Estate and the Receiver’s
Powers
On March 30, 2020, the Receiver moved for an order seeking approval of the
sale of seven pieces of artwork owned by the receivership estate, pursuant to bidding
procedures to be approved by the Court. (Doc. No. 238.) The hearing on the motion
is scheduled for June 8, 2020. (Doc. No. 246.)
The Receiver filed a further motion for approval and payment of fees of the
Receiver, his counsel, and accountants on April 16, 2020. (Doc. No. 255.)
The Receiver will be filing a motion for an order for approval of budgets
through the week ending July 24, 2020, extension of authority for the receiver’s
employment and payment of ordinary course professionals, including accountants
and attorneys previously employed in the ordinary course of the Receivership
Entity’s business, and to continue the Elite Discovery, Inc. contract, and authorizing
payments in furtherance of these agreements.
The Court approved the employment of Stretto as claims administrator by its
order entered June 18, 2019. (Doc. No. 79.) Since then, the Receiver has been
working to coordinate the claims procedures and allowance in the United States
receivership with the separate claims procedures followed in the Cayman Islands
regarding the Cayman Islands feeder fund, Direct Lending Income Feeder Fund, Ltd.
(“DLIFF”.)
On July 17, 2019, the Court entered its order granting in part the motion of the
Receiver for instructions regarding the primary Directors & Officers Liability Policy
(the “D&O Policy”) and its proceeds and demands for payment of attorney’s fees and
costs by various insureds. (Doc. No. 97.) By a stipulated order entered November
26, 2019, the Receiver and the Securities and Exchange Commission agreed to
extend the order to authorize the Receiver to request the insurance carrier to pay and
to authorize payment from proceeds of the D&O Policy with excess amounts covered
by other insurers, and to modify the stay of Section IX of the receiver order (Doc.

No. 10) to lift the stay to the extent necessary to allow the primary insurance carrier
to pay proceeds from the D&O Policy and take other necessary actions. (Doc. No.
182.) The Court has entered orders authorizing payment of insurance proceeds
pursuant to this prior authorization during this period. (See Doc. No. 235.)
C. Claims Procedure Motion
On March 21, 2020, the Receiver filed his motion for approval of a claims
procedure for potential creditors and investors. (Doc. No. 224.) The recommended
procedures included a proposed claims bar date for filing claims, an outline of the
procedures for notifying potential creditors and investors of the deadline for filing
claims, and procedures for filing a claim with the Receiver’s claims administrator,
Stretto.
On March 24, 2020, the Court issued an order requesting supplemental
briefing from the Receiver and other interested parties as to a) whether the proposed
timetable set forth in the motion should be extended in light of the coronavirus
epidemic; b) why known investors were required to return a claim form under the
proposed procedures; and c) whether the proposed means of notice by email and
publication were sufficient. (Doc. No. 242.) On April 6, 2020, the Receiver filed his
supplemental brief, addressing the foregoing questions. (Doc. No. 250.)
On April 9, 2020, the Court entered its order granting the Receiver’s claims
procedure motion. (Doc. No. 251.) A copy of that order is attached hereto as
Exhibit “4”.
In entering this order, the Court established July 7, 2020 at 11:59 pm
(prevailing Pacific time), as the bar date for the filing of claims by investors and
creditors of the U.S. Receivership Entities, and administrative claimants of the
receivership estate. The Court has also approved the form and manner of notice, and
the proof of claim form. (See Doc. No. 253.) The claim procedures are summarized
in the Notice of Bar Date and Procedure for Submitting a Proof of Claim Form,
which may be viewed on the Receiver’s claims administrator, Stretto’s, website at

https://case.stretto.com/dli/civildocket. Pursuant to those procedures, all claims must
be submitted by July 7, 2020 at 11:59 (prevailing Pacific time), through the methods
outlined in the notice and Proof of Claim Form.
With the claims procedure now approved by the Court, and the bar date set, by
mid-July 2020 the Receiver should have insight into the scope of the claims being
made against the receivership estate, and the total amount. As outlined in the notice,
the Receiver will issue deficiency notices, and objections to individual claims, as
appropriate, which may further reduce the claims that will participate in a
distribution plan. The form of the proposed distribution plan has yet to be
determined, and will be the subject of a further motion for the Court’s approval.
To provide guidance regarding formulation of the distribution plan, the
Receiver and his team are in the process of preparing a comprehensive report
regarding the forensic analysis of the portfolio positions that has been ongoing for
many months. Commencing preparation of this report has been possible only after
extensive review and analysis of the voluminous records of the Receivership Entities
over the past thirteen months. It is anticipated that this report will be issued late in
the next quarter.
D. Additional Anticipated Matters for Instructions and Potential Motions
Negotiations regarding the final forbearance agreement contemplated by the
Kountable settlement, described above, are ongoing. As appropriate, the Receiver
will file a motion for instructions and/or further approval of the forbearance
agreement should the terms of the final agreement prove to be substantially different
than represented to the Court.
E. Anticipated Motions Addressing Restructuring and Settlement
The Receiver continues to work actively to recover the balance on the
remaining loan and investment portfolios. The deteriorating economic climate
created by the coronavirus epidemic during this quarter has rendered the outcome of
these efforts uncertain at this time. Subject to ongoing discussions, the Receiver may

V. Communications with Investors
A. Investor Inquiries: The Receiver continues to track investor inquiries
received directly by the Receiver’s agents and by counsel, as well as responses to the
inquiries. The Receiver continues to review and respond to investor inquiries,
written and oral, and the Receiver’s website for the case: https://cases.stretto.com/dli

informed regarding the status of the case and the Receiver’s activities. The
Receiver’s counsel continues to actively engage with the firm of Pachulski Stang
Ziehl & Jones LLP, counsel for a group of investors, and other prospective investor
counsel, in response to their inquiries for updates on the case status and assets.
B. FAQs: The Receiver’s website for the case also includes a series of
“Frequently Asked Questions” and responsive information regarding the impact of
the receivership on DLI and the investors’ funds, the status of the receivership, and
the Receiver’s activities, the claims process in a receivership, and other similar
information. The Receiver continues to periodically update the FAQs to address new
issues or actions that may be of interest to investors as the case progresses.

The following schedules summarize the updates to the accruals reported in Doc #217, page 25.
[1] Total actual v. budget disbursements, including these actuals, are $2.67M v. $3.43M, resulting in a favorable variance of $0.76M, or 22%, from total budgeted disbursements. The total actual disbursements of $2.67M excludes $0.75M disbursement to Raymond James and $0.3M disbursement for counterparty funding. Raymond James disbursements are intentionally excluded from the budget since the timing and amount of the fees are directly correlated with the sale or refinancing closing(s) of portfolio assets, and the total fees to RJA for its services under the IB Engagement are capped at $4M. Counterparty funding disbursement is also intentionally excluded from the budget since such disbursement was returned to DLI.
